Disney Cruise Line has once again been recognized by the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority with the 2025 Blue Circle Award, honoring the cruise line’s continued participation in the port’s voluntary EcoAction Program and commitment to operating responsibly.
Commitment to Sustainability

The Blue Circle Award recognizes members of the shipping and cruise industries that demonstrate environmental leadership through practices that reduce emissions and environmental impact. Disney Cruise Line has earned the distinction 13 times, reflecting its continued efforts to meet environmental standards established by the Port of Vancouver.
Using shore power, when available, remains a key part of Disney Cruise Line’s environmental efforts in Vancouver. By plugging into the port’s shoreside electric grid while docked, the Disney Wonder is able to shut down its engines, significantly reducing emissions while at port.
The Disney Magic recently joined the Disney Wonder in sailing to Alaska from Vancouver, marking the first time two Disney Cruise Line ships will operate in the region while continuing to prioritize sustainability at port.
Disney Cruise Line was ranked No. 7 on the 2026 Forbes Best Brands for Social Impact list, reflecting the company’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices. The recognition comes at a time of unprecedented expansion, with eight ships in the current fleet and five more planned by 2031, including the newly announced Disney Believe, which will launch next year.
